Application tiled August 12, 1912. Serial No. 714,544.

Patented Uct. 28, 1913.

` the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had Ito the accompanying drawings, and to the letters'and fi res of reference marked thereon, which orrn a part of this specification. I

Uur invention relates to new and useful improvements in sanitary milk bottles.

The object of the invention is to improve thebottle shown and described in our former Patent, No. 1,039,87 9, of September 24, 1912, by means of a series of diagonal sealing folds at the junction between the tapered portion and upper terminal of the body of the bottle to eifectually seal the openings caused by the -slits necessary in forming the tapered portion of the bottle.

Before describing our invention in detail, we will iirs't refer to the accompanying drawings of which- A Figure 1 is a side elevation of our improved sanitary milk bottle Fig, 2 is a 1an view of the blank from which Said bott e is formed; Fig. 3 is a transverse section'on. the line w-az of Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is a transverse section on the line b b of Fig. 1; Fig. 5 is a similar section on the line o-'c of Fig. 1.

ln the description to follow, similar reference characters Aindicate corresponding i parts in the drawings and specification.

'Inthe formation yof our sanitary paper milk bottle, a single` blank 1 .of suitable paper isused. This is preferable because it is highly desirable in the construction of such a bottle to avoidthe use of more than a single blank of papiN because of the possibility of a-,ir spaces and inclosed pockets resulting where more than a single lank is used and in which particles of milk might lodge and remain. .The bottle so constructed of the bla'lgk 1 isoctangular in cross section at `any olntthereof with the exception of the :ueckfA t, therefore, follows that the vertical score,

lines `2 extend cr'owise of the blank and throughout the depth of the portion of the blank forming the lower body 3 and upper,

shown in Fig. 2, the score lines 2 extend from oneextreme edge of the blank to the points 2 which lie immediately on the outer side of the longitudinal or horizontal score line 5. From4 the points 2 the blank is provided with vertical slits 6 which extend from the points 2 to theiextreme edge of the blank. From the longitudinal or horizontal score line 5, other slits 7 are provided which extend diagonally from the slits 6 to said score line 5 and provides a series of triangular sealing folds 11. The manufacture of the paper bottle is greatly facilitated and the character of the bottle greatly improved by extending the vertical score lines 2 from one extreme edge of the blank to the points tapered or contracted body portion t. As

and 5 and is provided for by the formation of the diagonal score lines 9 which provide the triangular folds 10 which lie between the adjacent inner and outer folds when the upper body portion of the bottle is constructed "as in Fig, 1. The score lines 9, it will be observed, extend from the score line 8, at the points where the score lines 2 intersect the score line 8, to theinner terminals of the slits 7. The upper ends of the triangular folds 10 terminate at the score line 5, and, owin to the slits 7,triangular folds 11 are provided which form seals for the corners which intervene between the ta ered portion of the bottle and the cylindricalpneck portion 4f of the bottle. The neck portion of the bottle lis formed 'by the portions 13-of the thus reinforce said neck as is shown in Fig.`
